What Are YOU Doing?

We all do it. Complaining. About the weather, family members, co-workers, government.  The degree varies but we all "vent" about things we're unhappy with and typically to the folks we love most but heck, any stranger stuck in a line with us will do perfectly fine, thank you.  I especially think it's bad when parents "vent" or complain frequently around their children.  Snarky comments about other drivers, children in their classes or worse yet the staff at their school.   I have one question. What are YOU going to do about it to make things better? It's OK to get an occasional thing "off your chest" but when "push comes to shove" what IS within your control to make things even just a little bit better? Want to live in a "nicer world?"  It really does begin with each one of us making the decision to first be aware of what we're thinking, make the choice to NOT let it "leave our lips" and WA LA we are one step closer to a "complaint-free world!"  I challenge you to reframe your thinking.  In doing so you truly do have the power to renew your life!  Happy Sunday!
